Contrast-medium Induced Nephrotoxicity in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography - Iodixanol Versus Iopromide

In the treatment of coronary heart disease which is the major cause of heart attack, direct mechanical treatment with catheters such as the coronary angiography, coronary balloon intervention and stenting intervention are the mainstay of therapy in recent years. In that procedures, the investigators should use the contrast media, and it may cause kidney toxicity especially in the patients with underlying kidney disease and decreased kidney function. The investigators intended to find out which contrast agent has less kidney toxicity in the catheter based treatment of coronary arterial diseases in patients with underlying decreased kidney function

Key information

About this study

Iodixanol, a nonionic, dimeric, iso-osmolar contrast medium (IOCM), may be less nephrotoxic than nonionic, monomeric, low-osmolar contrast media (LOCMs) in high-risk patients. We compared the nephrotoxicity of iodixanol with that of iopromide, an nonionic, monomeric LOCM, in patients with renal impairment.

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence of contrast induced nephropathy, defined as either a relative increase in serum creatinine from baseline of >=25% or an absolute increase of >=0.5mg/dL(44.2µmol/L)

    Time frame: days 1 and 2

Secondary outcomes

  1. proportion of patients exhibiting an increase in serum creatinine of >=0.5mg/dL(44.2µmol/L), the proportion with a >=1.0 mg/dL(88.4µmol/L) increase in serum creatinine, and the mean peak increase in serum creatinine

    Time frame: days 1 and 2
